Ms. McAvoy will be eligible to receive the standard director compensation previously established by the Board’s Compensation Committee and provided to other non-employee directors.  Additional information regarding such compensatory arrangements may be found under the caption “Director Compensation” in the Company’s definitive proxy statement that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by May 17, 2013.  Other than being eligible to receive such director compensation, Ms. McAvoy did not enter into any material plan, contract, or arrangement in connection with his election as director.

There are no arrangements or understandings with any other person pursuant to which Ms. McAvoy was elected as a director.  There are no transactions between Ms. McAvoy and the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
